An Aussie Goes Bolly is an Australian reality television series which aired on the pay TV channel FOX8 in 2008. The six-part series featured Australian cricket fan Gus Worland following the Australian cricket team during their 2007 tour of India.[1]
The series was a sequel to Worland's 2006 series An Aussie Goes Barmy , and was narrated and produced by Hollywood actor Hugh Jackman, who had been "best mates" with Worland since they attended the same kindergarten in Australia.
During a match in Mumbai, Worland stood up to 47,000 Indian fans who were making racial taunts against Australian player Andrew Symonds.[2]
The series won the Astra Award for best Sports Program on Australian Pay Television
